Dear members of the board, I've got a question.
In my next column in Russian Hunting Magazine I'm touching on an issue of "hunting as an excuse". That is, a guy tells his wife he's going hunting, puts on his camo, packs up his gun and leaves home for a couple of days, but uses the time away to check into a motel with his mistress, or go wherever booze and loose women are available. In Russia it's pretty common; so common, in fact, that in just about every hunting and fishing lodge prostitutes and drink are only a question away. This sometimes makes life hard for people who really want to hunt and fish, and damages the image of hunters in the public eye, and... (go on for 1500 words and you'll get yourself a column).
The point is that it's a cultural question, and with every cultural question you've always have to check how it is in other cultures. with other countries.
Thus the question.
Assuming you've never done it yourself, how common or uncommon is this practice around you?
